Sunspot Circus: OTA - Gathering Post

Who: Everyone and anyone
What: Come one, Come All! The Sunspot Circus has arrived!
Where: A clearing just outside of Haven
When: 6/20 Evening, to 6/23 Evening

The Sunspot Circus seems to be all anyone has been able to talk about, with growing excitement as they days pass by. And finally, at around 5 PM on the 20th, the Circus has not only arrived, but has set up in a clearing just outside of Haven. While most of the crew have been hard at work setting up the big, red and yellow tent in the middle of the clearing and setting up various vendors and games and stalls for food and any manner of circus attraction and side-show you can think of, a smaller group has been traveling through Haven drumming up excitement.

There are prizes to be one in games of skill, various side show acts to marvel at, a fortune teller who will happily read anyone's fortune. And the food smells amazing. Savory, spicy, smoked, sweet. Whatever you might crave, the Circus seems to have it.

So come one, come all. Come see the ladies riding the backs of tamed skitters, the magician pulling small Kites out of hats. Whatever you think might be at a circus like this will be there. It's vibrant and colorful. The music is enjoyable. There are fireworks at night when the circus closes for the evening. Performers will be roaming the clearing, juggling and singing tunes of questionable decency (cover your ears, children) and making delightful nuisances of themselves. People will be shouting for you to buy hand-made jewelry, scarves, various foods on sticks, and multitudes of foods that probably shouldn't be fried but someone did it and it's amazing.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

And remember what happens the day after they leave.

OTA - One semi-closed prompt for Hawk.

June 20th/21st.

Gwen's at the circus because it's something new and exciting to see. It was a welcome change to Haven, the noise and the smells just bordering on overwhelming for her and her senses, but damnit she'd like to see something more than slap-dash buildings, and angry faces.

The Circus, while pieced together in it's own way, brought a new vibrancy to the small town and Gwen was here for it.

So absolutely find her anywhere in the Circus. Playing some of the games that are surely rigged, watching balancing acts and contortionists and magicians as they roam through the set-up. She's even found someone that sells some damn amazing funnel cake and she's absolutely having some for dinner.

She might even share. Probably.

Nah, get your own funnel cake. Someone should encourage her to try for something a little less sugary. Or encourage her to go worse. There's deep fried cookies somewhere.

June 23rd - For Hawk

Gwen was pretty determined to win the giant stuffed bear for Nacho. The dog seemed pretty fascinated by it, staring at it as it hung above them at the ring toss. But, like all games at the circus, it was just a bit rigged. She wasn't quite there just yet and, once she was out of rings and was handed a smaller bear, she looked over at Hawk with a smile.

"Okay. It's your turn." Nacho, meanwhile, was sniffing the bear Gwen was holding, looking from the bear to Gwen and back again. "What? You want this bear?"

A faint huff from Nacho and a tail-wag. Yes, he wants that small bear, please and thanks. Looking up at Hawk, Gwen shrugs a bit.

"Or we could give him the smaller bear. Your dog, your call."
